Hi,

 

I am trying to evaluate the AD9361 using an Ettus USRP B210 board.

I am using Ubuntu 13.10 with GNU RADIO 3.7.2.1-213 GRC 3.7.3 and UHD 3.7.0-1

I have a very simple GRC program for generating a 5MHz tone on a 4GHz
carrier, which I then analyse on an external spectrum analyser.

 

When I first run my play.grc program, I get the following:

 

3.995GHz @ -40dBm (quadrature imbalance)

4.000GHz @ -52dBm (carrier leakage)

4.005GHz @ -10dBm (expected signal)

 

However, if I move and return the TX frequency (using the slider), I then
get:

 

3.995GHz @ -67dBm (quadrature imbalance)

4.000GHz @ -52dBm (carrier leakage)

4.005GHz @ -10dBm (expected signal)

 

i.e., the quadrature imbalance correction is not being performed by default.
It requires a frequency change trigger it.

Is the startup sequence for the AD9361 correct ?

Is there any way I can trigger the quadrature correction algorithm to occur
at startup ?

Where can I find out more details of how the UHD programs the AD9361 ?

 

Many thanks,

Simon

Hi Robert,

let me first apologize for the horribly long delay to get back to you.

Now in order to help you, could you outline a bit more what your changes
were to which files? If you could push a branch somewhere on github,
or send me a diff by email, I will hopefully get a better understanding on
what goes wrong.

Cheers,
Moritz

        recovery        using USRP N200

Hi Martin,
              Thanks for your reply.  To put in a brief, I need a simulink
model to implement non-coherent binary FSK demodulation along with
symbol/timing recovery using USRP N200 Card and SBX daughterboard. There
are already simulink based examples for QPSK receiver but I need to modify
them for FSK. If you could suggest how to modify the 'QPSK Reciever'
Simulink model to implement binary FSK I'll be grateful as I couldn't find
any examples related to that.

Pls suggest if you require more information,

Regards,
Adeel
